Man nominated for Darwin by DU FYI
The man is thought to have constructed the backpack from a used automotive muffler, which he filled with gasoline and gunpowder, “trying to get a rocket-launch effect,” McCabe said.
“He asked another person to light a wick and then began to sled down a hill. At some point during the ride, the device exploded,” he said. The man suffered second-degree burns to his face and right side of his body, and possible eye injuries, according to a police memo. He was rushed to POH Medical Center in Pontiac where he was in stable condition today, McCabe said.
Found by Otis in Detroit.
Good old American know-how.
I wonder if people who buy unaffordable housing shouldn’t get an honorable mention. They’re like the dinosaurs who walking into the river just before the flood hit, and now their bones are in museums.
For reference:
Police haven’t released his name yet, but we all know it was Wile E. Coyote.
This is the direct effect of Biology courses

A fine example of extrapolation based upon self observation.
i think this pic would be more appropriate for the article
This is a strong case against socialized medicine. I really don’t want my tax dollars going to fix this guy up. I might chip in for a bullet to the brain though.
#7 – For god’s sake don’t let him shoot himself. No telling WHO might get hurt!
But was there a warning on the muffler saying not to use it as a rocket pack?
Actually, the “Darwin Award” is for somebody who *kills themself* in a memorable way, eliminating their contribution to the gene pool, this moron is still able to reproduce.
